Rating metrics:
Outliers can be removed when calculating a mean average to dampen the effects of ratings outside the normal distribution. This figure is provided as the trimmed mean. A high standard deviation can be legitimate, but can sometimes indicate 'gaming' is occurring. Consider a simplified example* of an item receiving ratings of 100, 50, & 0. The mean average rating would be 50. However, ratings of 55, 50 & 45 could also result in the same average. The second average might be more trusted because there is more consensus around a particular rating (a lower deviation).
(*In practice, some albums can have several thousand ratings)
This album is rated in the top 9% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 75.1/100, a mean average of 75.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 75.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.7.

The tightest, toe tappinest example of that great Ry Cooder easy breezy jangle.

Probably my favorite album by Ry. It's probably his BEST album, as well. It's just a great mix of songs new AND old. The musicianship is just fantastic and Ry showcases some of his best guitar playing on this one. If you're a fan of Mr. Cooder's music, pick this one up IMMEDIATELY if you haven't already done so!

Probabilmente il miglior album di Ry Cooder, anche se io gli ho sempre preferito "Into the purple valley"; sicuramente quello ( o uno dei due: l'altro è "Chicken skin music" ) in cui il tocco di Cooder raggiunge l'apoteosi. Che sia all'acustica ( doppio assolo sovrainciso in "Jesus on the meanline" ), all'elettrica ( "Fool for cigarettes" ) o al mandolino ( "Mexican divorce" ), il chitarrista regala emozioni ad ogni passaggio, dimostrando come il saper suonare non è direttamente proporzionale al numero di note che si suonano.
A solid early album by Ry Cooder.
